Through a staged collaborative process, ARACY’s ‘Child readiness to learn’ project aims to identify the points of intervention where most benefit will be achieved in reducing the impact of poverty on children’s ability to learn. ARACY works with researchers, practitioners and experts in a range of fields related to poverty, social inclusion, early childhood development and education but also social entrepreneurs, business people and others who can help us drive ideas into action.

ARACY will develop action plans for up to two significant community projects focusing on these points of intervention, and a business case to secure the resources required to establish sustainable collaborations to implement the projects.
